[GET-INSPIRED] 12 Challenges to Change Your Life in 2017

I’m thinking about the importance of all the experiences a human being can have. I’m thinking about the importance of each experience for mental, emotional, spiritual and physical development.

And I realized that each experience is truly important, with different and unique benefits.

The more challenging the experiences are, the more impact their results will have over the evolutionary process. Therefore, let your lifestyle be challenged by 2017.

What I’m Going To Do?

I want that my 2017 to be a great year.

For each month of the following year, I set myself a challenge. The purpose is to achieve the objective of every challenge and learn new things. If you want to, you can “borrow” my list of challenges and implement it into your lifestyle.

January 2017 – 31 Days with 3 Mins of Cold Showers

Probably, the 1st of January will be a lazy day for most of you out there. For me, it will start with a cold shower and will continue with the same cold showers until the last day of January.

What to achieve – spontaneous waking up and cold resistanceWhat to invest – 3 mins, under cold showersSchedule – waking up every morning at 6:30; showering starts with 7:00

PS: In the last week I will double the challenge and will stay 6 mins under the cold shower.

PPS: The cold showers, just like that, aren’t fun, so right after each shower I’ll go for a 3 km run.

March 2017 – 31 Days with 2 Hours of Reading Books in English

English is not my first language. Though I’m reading a lot, I’m not reading every day. There are days when I read 2 to 3 hours, but there are days when I’m not reading at all. Of course, I’m reading articles every day, but the information found in articles is not as in depth as the information found in books.

What to achieve – a better control over the English vocabularyWhat to invest – two hoursSchedule – waking up every morning at 6:30; reading starts with 7:00

PS: In the last week I will double the challenge and will read 4 hours.

July 2017 – 31 Days with One Hour of Meditation

To meditate means being conscious about what is happening. But I don’t think I am as conscious as I could be. During July, I’ll have 30 mins in the morning and another 30 mins in the evening for meditating purposes.

What to achieve – know myself betterWhat to invest – one hourSchedule – waking up every morning at 6:30; meditation starts with 7:00 in the morning and 22:00 in the evening

PS: In the last week I will double the challenge and meditate for two hours.

Final Purpose

Each month has an activity that can be intensively experienced. I want to discover them all and keep some in my lifestyle after I’m done with the challenges.

Maybe you think I’m crazy. Well, I think that too, but that’s not a bad think. I really think this whole madness will change my life in a way I can’t even imagine.

Looking forward to seeing 2017.
